3 What is Notebooking? Notebooking is a new term for an old concept-journaling! Notebooking is simply taking the old boring, black and white composition notebook and replacing it with a 3 ring binder. Then the fun begins! Why is Notebooking a great teaching tool? Notebooking pages give a child a place to become creative. Through notebooking, your child will be using and developing many important skills. He/She will use narration skills, writing skills, organizational skills and even artistic skills. It also allows you to know how much your child has understood and gained from the subject. How do I use these notebooking pages with the TruthQuest History program? You will find a notebooking page for most of the topics in the program. Simply read about the topic of study, then have your child re-tell what they have learned on the page. Once the notebook is completed, your child will then be able to share his/her new-found knowledge with dad, grandparents, or even themselves in a creative and fun way. The notebooks also become a great way to look back over the year to see how your child has grown in language usage, penmanship, and creativity.
